Event: Rocket Round Leicester Learning Programme, on 31 October 2021
Participants: Ben Bowie, Mark Jacques, Yasmin Bousaki and Kirsty Pick are joining other Rocket Round Leicester sponsors in this red-hot teambuilding challenge. We’ll see which business is best under pressure as we take turns to walk over hot coals!
A spectacular public art event that will blast its way across the city or Leicester for 10 weeks in summer 2021. Schools, colleges and community groups will also join in the fun, adopting and designing their own smaller Rocket sculptures.

Story

We deliver care that is special and unique to each individual. Patients and their families are at the heart of everything we do. We are about life and living. Its about making people comfortable and being there to help and support them and their family. We help people living with a terminal illness make the most of the time they have left. It costs us £8.2 million each year to be able to deliver our services. The NHS does give us some money, but we still need to raise at least £6 million each year from our local community. Were very proud that 90p of every £1 received goes towards patient care. The continued impact of COVID-19 and a second national lockdown is devastating, and we are facing a £2.3 million loss in raised income across the year. We need your support now, more than ever. Please help support our patients and their families at the most difficult time of their lives, by supporting Rocket Round Leicester. Thank you
